We stayed here recently, and overall the hostel is a nice spot. Some of the lacking aspects: Only one toilet for men. Wifi was not working well at all. The bike I rented had a flat tire and it seemed to be something they meant to fix a while ago. Also, the showers were not really clean enough. But the...

great location!

The hostel bar is located outside everyone's dorms - they play music very loudly until early hours of the morning even though hardly anyone even attends the bar. The staff are very helpful and the rooms are clean, but lockers under beds aren't very safe and there is only one toilet and shower. The clientele is much older and Spanish...

Although slightly lacking in electrical outlet options and WiFi signal just falling short of the furthest room, the vibe in this hostel and other provisions more than made up for these tiny inconveniences (which are common and could be worse in hostels in these parts).
The location was central, amidst the main shopping street, grocery shops and restaurants.
There was...

Great location and beautiful building. Easily accessible by bus from tres cruces terminal. It's close to the major sights in the old town and short walk to the coast. It's also next to a LOT of veggie/vegan places to eat. It's clean and does a basic but nice enough breakfast.
The staff are nice enough, though not the friendliest I've...

There was no curfew. The first night a group of football jobbos partied until 3am with no staff intervening. The next day we asked to change rooms and were told that they would let us know in the afternoon. They didn't get back to us either way. The second night there were two groups of people partying in different locations....

You get what you pay for and this place is cheap. Staff didn't really care. There were people sleeping on the floor of the breakfast room the first morning and the second there was a guy sleeping on the couch in the common room - at 11am. It was dark and dingy. I was sharing a bathroom but felt like...

We had a double room in this well located hostel. Both room and shared bathroom could have been cleaner, and in a better state of repair, but were fine. The breakfast was the standard hostel offering, but was seemingly left out for ages before breakfast started - due to an early bus we were the first people at breakfast but...

Really friendly place, with helpful staff. We rented bikes from the hostel on the first day and they were in great condition. The set us up with everything we needed to enjoy an awesome day on La Rambla. staff suggested restaurants and activities and even offered an Asado on Sunday nights when most area restaurants are closed. Nice patio, game...

Wow, I booked this place based on it's reviews and location. I have no idea how so many people are giving it good reviews. The only good thing about it is it's staff. They are great, helpful and welcoming. That's pretty much where the good ends. The entrance has a steep staircase, the staff come down to welcome you &...
